Ekbal, Asif and Sivaji Bandyopadhyay 2014 Named entity recognition in Bengali using system combinationLingvisticæ Investigationes 37:1, pp. 1–22 | Article
This paper reports a voted Named Entity Recognition (NER) system that exploits appropriate unlabeled data. Initially, we develop NER systems using the supervised machine learning algorithms such as Maximum Entropy (ME), Conditional Random Field (CRF) and Support Vector Machine (SVM). Each of these… read more
Ekbal, Asif et Sivaji Bandyopadhyay 2011 Named entity recognition in Bengali and Hindi using support vector machineLingvisticæ Investigationes 34:1, pp. 35–67 | Article
Named Entity Recognition (NER) aims to classify each word of a document into predefined target named entity (NE) classes and is nowadays considered to be fundamental for many Natural Language Processing (NLP) tasks such as information retrieval, machine translation, information extraction, question… read more
Ekbal, Asif, Sudip Kumar Naskar and Sivaji Bandyopadhyay 2009 Named Entity Recognition and transliteration in BengaliNamed Entities: Recognition, classification and use, Sekine, Satoshi and Elisabete Ranchhod (eds.), pp. 97–116 | Article
Ekbal, Asif, Sudip Kumar Naskar and Sivaji Bandyopadhyay 2007 Named Entity Recognition and transliteration in BengaliNamed Entities: Recognition, classification and use, Sekine, Satoshi and Elisabete Ranchhod (eds.), pp. 95–114 | Article
The paper reports about the development of a Named Entity Recognition (NER) system in Bengali using a tagged Bengali news corpus and the subsequent transliteration of the recognized Bengali Named Entities (NEs) into English. Three different models of the NER have been developed. A semi-supervised… read more
